That's like an ardent states rights advocate saying that racism is completely over in society.

Too "violent?" I guess there are some housewives that probably see about 3 minutes of the sport a year and conclude that. but i don't believe that is any grand amount of people. I've never once heard any complaints of football being misogynistic (any more than any other male-dominated sport) or "dangerous to society." So yeah, I would say that the sentiment you described is so fringe as to be near nonexistent. I certainly don't think the discussion about concussions is due to some cabal of anti-football libbies.
